"My first meeting with Dr. Lahmann was at a seminar. He was the first Dr. in a very long time who felt honest and just didn' beat around the bush. The more I got to know him the more I knew he was the one I wanted to do my surgery. Dr Lahmann was just so honest with me. He made me comfy with him at our first meeting. What I liked the least about him was no weekend hours...lol.
At the seminar where he spoke he was very clear that this can not be done without the aftercare. It is essential that this is taken serious and must be done. Dr. Lahmann was also very clear that if I was not going to do after care that there is no point cause surgery is NOT A FIX it's a TOOL and it only works if all the tools are used to build myself back up. When it came to the risks of surgery he was upfront and clear with me about all the issues that could happen and that it would be in my best interest to do as much research on all the surgeries and to be fully prepared for the if and or when's. Overall I would have no problem rating Dr. Lahmann on a scale of 1-10 he would be a 9. Nobody can be perfect that is for sure but he was really so honest and upfront and had no problem telling me it is what it is and it needs to be the whole game plan or none at all. I would have to say that one of the down falls to the doctor and office is that it is very busy and you can feel a bit lost in the shuffle but when it come to be your turn they all know who you are and why you are there and if there is anything that they can help you with. That is rare at a weight loss doctor's office. He was the first doctor that I had meet who was like that and didn't lie to me. Thanks Doc! I think you must have both in order to have a good experince. It in my mind don't work with just one. You need to have both in your doctor, surgical competence and bedside manner. If you don't have that in your doctor don't do it with that doctor. "
